[Chapter-delegates] Breaking the silence on the Global INET

[Anne Lord]

hi Nicolas,

Thanks for the reminder and YES absolutely!  I have an action to  
discuss this with the organisers to sort out the details. I would love  
to hear from Chapters who would be interested in doing this. Please  
email me off list at <chapter-support at isoc.org>.

thanks,
Anne
